Hoovering - Episode 179: Becky Excell

Welcome to HOOVERING, the podcast about eating. Host, Jessica Fostekew (Guilty Feminist, Motherland) has a frank conversation with an interesting person about gobbling; guzzling; nibbling; scoffing; devouring and wolfing all up… or if you will, hoovering.This week I’m talking to the hugely successful ‘queen of gluten free baking’ (according to Nigella no less), Becky Excel. I got my bits on her last book and cooked myself her gluten free courgette and hallumi muffins for lunch and we zoomed between Essex and London and got deep about everything from anorexia through to me spilling a fresh hot coffee all over my tuppence - as is the way on this podcast really. Everything written below in CAPITALS is a link to the relevant webpage. Honourable Mentions/ LinksMake you’re immediately that you’re following BECKY EXCEL on Instagram, it’s full of fit recipes.
